I had my surgery with Dr. Barker on June 13th. I don't have any complaints about my surgery and recovery at all. The only thing is that I felt like since he has SO MANY patients I get kind of a rushed feeling. But saying that, it also made me feel good to know that he has done SO MANY surgeries and has many years of experience. Good luck!!!

I feel the same way. Its almost like a cattle drive. I had my 2nd consult and stress test today and am good to go for next Wednesday. Did your surgery go as scheduled on your day? How many nights did they keep you?

He's my dr also I had surgery June 20th!! He's a very busy man and it does feel rushed but I had a good surgery no complications and the busier he is means the more experience he has!! :))

Yes that is true. I have definately been overlooking the "cattle drive" part of it. I just need to remember I've got a great doc that's obviously very popular. That's for your input.

Dr. Davidson out of presby Dallas did mine, but at the new forest park medical center. Wow! What a wonderful facility and staff! His bedside manor leaves much to be desired but he is good- as well as busy, but I did not feel that from him or his staff over the other billboard surgeons -I'm sure all very qualified as well.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
